Best of skill to you on this approach working. Let us know if it worked, as that would be valuable for others who encounter a similar issue. John Wheeler

Hi @Charles218 From your first image, the upper portion of the PGBK print head is not working correctly, while the lower portion is. I am not the expert yet I believe these are the nozzles for the pigment black ink. This is consistent with the smeared portion of the text being on the top...

You're welcome @Stumped2 John Wheeler

Hi Jon I am new here too. I like your sense of humor :) John Wheeler

Hi @Stumped2 I am no expert, yet they typically have a toner counter and a drum counter keeping track of when it gets low. There are situations where they don't work right and need resetting. The link to this article goes over these topics, though the steps might be a bit different for your...

Welcome aboard. I am no expert on either one yet understand that is a common question with tradoffs for certain products. Here is a link that goes over the pros and cons of each for you to consider. John Wheeler Screen Printing vs Embroidery

I am not new to taking pictures, post-processing, color management, and sharing images digitally, yet I am relatively a newbie in papers and printing. So, my goal is to become much more knowledgeable about papers and printing on my Epson P900 (including Qimage One), and start exploring larger...

Hi Smile Other than being - A4 - Glossy - No OBAs Do you have any other requirements/needs for the photo paper? It might help target recommendations e.g - The HP Premium Plus Glossy A4 is still available on amazon.it in some quantity. Is that not of interest? Is it too expensive - Do you...

I did not check availability in Germany. Yet Baryta papers often do not have optical brighteners with glossy options. I will list some links to check. They come in various textures and costs, and, therefore, not all are identical replacements for the HP Premium Glossy. I thought it was worth...

Hi Smile From my understanding, the HP Premium Plus Glossy Photo Paper is 80lbs or 265 g/m^2 It is still available for sale If you want to move from that paper a couple of alternatives Epson Premium Photo Paper Glossy at 256 g/m^2 or Epson Ultra Premium Photo Paper Glossy at 297 g/m^2 That is...

You’re welcome @lev John Wheeler

Hi Lev A lot of good posts and discussions in this thread. Here is a link to some mini-tutorials on color management and printing that I have found to be excellent. I thought it was worth sharing to cover the most important color management topics. John Wheeler...

Hi Lev I suggest trying a different rendering intent than absolute colorimetric. Known to cause issues going from larger gamut to smaller gamut https://www.xrite.com/service-support/renderingintentsperceptualvsabsolutecolorimetric

Hi Lev I am not familiar with you particular Epson printer. I have the Epson SC P900 There are two important settings that may be influencing your result. 1) You need to set an Paper ICC profile which maps your editing color space color numbers into the color numbers of the printer profile...

Hi Mark Quite a while ago, I was making a similar decision, so I can share my experience (though dated). I need a home/office printer of about the same volume of paper as you, and I wanted to be able to print images as well. I learned the hard way that focusing first on the printer's reliability...

Hi @sorbiegunner It is hard to know about your specific issue, yet here are some general thoughts. - those are pretty tight margins, so using larger margins will help when the variability has been minimized - The guide bars for the paper should touch the paper yet not be snug. You don't want...

Hi @TheEd Do you need to know which printer model it came from or something more specific then that such as including revisions etc. If you need to know which printer it came from, that is easier and here is what I would do. 1) List out the printer models that you have had over time. 2) Search...

You’re welcome @Epatcola The printer used was the same as in my profile and forgot to include it in the text. I used my Epson SC P 900 printer with Epson Glossy paper and Epson OEM inks. Printed from a MacBook Pro 2001 M1. Firmware and printer driver were up to date. I may redo part of the...

Hi @Epatcola You are asking good questions. Since I have recently done resolution tests on several papers, I thought your questions would be worth running an experiment to see if there were any resolution differences when using the same paper, the same ICC profile, and only changing the media...

Hi @Epatcola I have yet to dig into the details of the differences in settings for those different paper types. I am unsurprised that it does not change the gamut/profile for photo papers since the tests are done on relatively big test squares. I expect differences to be in other areas, such...
